She said: “There’s something about Kemi Adetiba. Kemi Adetiba will tell you who Sola Sobowale is. I don’t even know myself. Kemi knows me more than I know myself.

“Kemi Adetiba brought me out. I will say it anywhere. I don’t mind if it sounds like a broken record. I will echo it. I will sing it. I will shout it. She brought me out.”

Sobowale also noted that she never watched herself in movies but she had to watch King of Boys.

Nigerian music star David Adeleke, widely known as Davido, has disagreed with the advice that voters should leave polling stations immediately after casting their ballots in the ongoing Edo State gubernatorial election.

In an interview with Channels Television on Saturday morning, Mba urged Edo residents to fulfill their civic duty and return home after voting.

He also announced a restriction on vehicular movement in the state from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. on election day. “If you’re not accredited for the election, stay off the streets. Cast your vote and go home; it’s your civic duty,” Mba said.

However, Davido, a supporter of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), had a different view.

He suggested that voters should remain at the polling stations to ensure their votes are properly counted and to prevent any potential electoral misconduct.

In a tweet, he responded to Mba’s advice with a humorous yet critical tone, writing, “Loooooooool go where ???”

Davido, whose mother is from Edo State, had previously expressed his support for the PDP candidate, Asue Ighodalo.
